At A Place Called Home, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of where they grow up.

We are dedicated to supporting youth in South Central Los Angeles from elementary school through their mid-twenties, providing programs and services designed to support their social, emotional, and economic success.

Marylu Headshot

It was the dance program that attracted me but then I stuck around because there were so many opportunities and being at APCH was shaping and building my identity. I would see black and brown women who were educated and  getting their higher degrees. Now in graduate school, when I am nervous to speak, I look back and remember all those people who believed in me, and I know I have to speak up. I got courage from APCH.
